Apprenticeship at Qingcheng Mountain, Senior Brother Yu Canghai

Chapter 270: Establishing the Shu Alliance

Just when Chu Yuan was in seclusion.

A woman with an extraordinary beauty, as if she was not of this world, and a cold and beautiful temperament like a fairy, went up Qingcheng Mountain.

As she walked along, she attracted the attention of the young Taoist priests on the mountain.

The other party was Shi Feixuan, the successor of Cihang Jingzhai. When the six-month deadline was up, she took the "Secret of Immortality" to Yangzhou City to look for Chu Yuan.

But when they arrived in Yangzhou City, Shi Long told them that Chu Yuan had already left Yangzhou City.

Helplessly, Shi Feixuan could only take the "Secret of Immortality" south to Bashu and came to Qingcheng Mountain.

In the main hall of Qingcheng Sect.

Kunyang received Shi Feixuan.

"Miss Master, my junior brother has been in seclusion for a while, but before he went into seclusion, he told us about this matter, and also temporarily gave me your sect's "Cihang Sword Canon" for safekeeping. I will, please, hand it over to you."

Kunyang is seven feet tall, wearing a dark-black Taoist robe that holds the space tightly, and a lotus crown on his head. He stands under the statues of the three ancestors, giving people a sense of transcendence and majesty. He said to Shi Feixuan.

After saying that, he took out the "Cihang Sword Canon" which he had prepared long ago and hidden in his sleeves, which looked like a scroll in Cihang Jingzhai, and handed it to Shi Feixuan.

Upon hearing this, Shi Feixuan did not dare to neglect Kunyang. She had seen Kunyang in action and knew that the Taoist Qingyang's senior brother was also a master in the Qingcheng Sect who did not show off his prowess in the martial arts world.

Shi Feixuan took out the Secret of Immortality, which even the former Sui Emperor Yang Guang wanted to obtain, and handed it to Kunyang, saying, "Thank you, Taoist Kunyang."

After Kunyang and Shi Feixuan exchanged, they each confirmed that there was no problem with the things in their hands. Then Kunyang said, "It's not a problem. This is also what my junior brother told me before he went into seclusion."

Shi Feixuan didn't know yet that Chu Yuan, with the help of the "Cihang Sword Canon" in her hand, had already comprehended and perfected a peerless sword technique involving the primordial spirit.

After Shi Feixuan put away the Cihang Sword Canon, she asked again, "Master Kunyang, just now on my way up the mountain, I saw a lot of people gathered at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. Some of them were dressed strangely, and they looked like barbarians from Shu. May I ask why they gathered at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain?"

Kunyang was straightforward and honest. He explained to Shi Feixuan, "Miss Shi, you may not know that my junior brother wants to unite the three major forces in Shu, namely, Duzunbao, Bameng, and Chuanbang, to form a Shu League. Now that the news has spread, those people at the foot of the mountain should be the Shu martial arts sects that have received the news and are watching from the foot of Qingcheng Mountain."

"Master Qingyang wants to unite with Duzunbao, Bameng, and Chuanbang to form a Shumeng?"

When Shi Feixuan heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes.

If this is true, the martial arts world used to say that the Qingcheng Sect was the largest force in Shu, but there were always other forces and sects in Shu.

But if this Shu Alliance is really established, then in the future the Qingcheng Sect will be the only one who has the final say in the entire Shu area, and other forces will probably become vassals of the Qingcheng Sect.

This will have an impact and change on the entire martial arts landscape of the world.

However, the other three major forces are unlikely to give in and will definitely strongly oppose it.

"Yes, right now, at the foot of Qingcheng Sect, only small gangs and sects from Shu gather here. It won't be long before people from Duzunbao, Bameng, and Chuanbang will also arrive."

Kunyang nodded.

"Miss Master, would you like to stay and see the process of the establishment of the Shu Alliance?"

Kunyang continued.

"I'm not from Shu, is that okay?"

Shi Feixuan said.

She hesitated.

Originally, she wanted to retrieve the "Cihang Sword Canon" and then hurry back to bring it back to the sect.

However, a major event that was about to happen in Qingcheng Sect, which would have a huge impact on the world's martial arts landscape, made her not want to leave for the time being.

"Of course you can. Although Miss Master is not from Shu, she is from Cihang Jingzhai, the leader of the white way in the world. If you want to stay, my Qingcheng Sect will welcome you at any time."

Kunyang said to Shi Feixuan.

"In that case, I'm sorry to bother you."

Shi Feixuan finally made up her mind to stay in Qingcheng Sect for a while to see how things develop before deciding whether to leave or not.

"do not bother."

Kunyang Road.

Then Kunyang arranged for his disciples to arrange guest rooms for Master Feixuan to stay in the Qingcheng Sect.

……

The three major forces in Shu: Duzunbao, Bameng, and Chuanbang!
They also received invitations sent to them by the Qingcheng Sect in the name of its leader Chu Yuan!

The three major forces' lord Jie Hui of Duzun Fort, the four leaders of Bameng, and the leader of Chuan Gang Fan Zhuo, all learned the news that Qingcheng Sect wanted to establish Shu League.

Duzun Castle.

The main castle hall.

Xie Huigao sat on a stone chair.

Below are his son Xie Wenlong and daughter-in-law Song Yuhua.

Butler Fang Yimin stood beside him.

After reading the invitation sent by Qingcheng Sect in the name of Taoist Qingyang, Jie Hui's eyes became solemn and the hall fell into silence for a long time.

"Look at them all!"

After almost a quarter of an hour, Xie Hui finally came to his senses and handed the invitation in his hand to his son Xie Wenlong and daughter-in-law Song Yuhua who were standing below.

Butler Fang Yimin took it and handed the invitation to Jie Wenlong, who read it and gave it to Song Yuhua.

"After reading it, tell us what you think!"

After his daughter-in-law Song Yuhua finished reading, Xie Hui said.

"Dad, this Qingcheng sect has bad intentions. On the surface, they say they want to establish the Shu Alliance to prevent war in Shu. It's all voluntary, but in fact they want to annex our three major forces. We can't agree to it!"

Xie Wenlong said angrily.

"Is that all you see?"

When Xie Hui heard what his son Xie Wenlong said, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Aunt, how about I go back to Lingnan and ask my father for help..."

But daughter-in-law Song Yuhua said.

"it's useless."

Xie Hui shook his head: "The Qingcheng Sect is now in power. Even the Queen of Yin, Zhu Yuyan, couldn't kill him. Although my eldest brother is very powerful, he has been living in seclusion in Lingnan for many years. I'm afraid he is out of reach."

Xie Wenlong said: "Dad, what should we do?"

Because of the chaos in the world in recent years, Duzun Fort has maintained an army - the Jie Family Army.

However, facing a master like Qingyang Taoist Chu Yuan, the army is completely useless.

Moreover, the Qingcheng Sect is not a pushover. Today, there are thousands of disciples in the Qingcheng Sect alone. In addition, there are people living around Qingcheng Mountain and throughout Shu who practice Qingcheng Sect martial arts and believe in Taoism wholeheartedly.

If the Qingcheng Sect is angered, Duzun Castle will probably be in trouble.

Ugh!
Xie Hui sighed and said, "Yimin, reply to the Taoist from Qingcheng Sect who sent the letter and tell him that we from Duzun Castle have accepted the invitation and will go to Qingcheng Mountain on time."

Fang Yimin said, "Yes, sir."

After the housekeeper Fang Yimin left, Xie Hui continued: "Since we don't want it, the people from the Ba League and the Chuan Gang probably won't want it either. The emergence of the Ba League led by the Qingcheng Sect is even more unpopular with other forces in the world. The emergence of a dominant force that unifies the Shu martial arts world. The Qingcheng Sect's intention to establish the Shu League this time has no intention of hiding it from others. Wait, other forces will oppose it, and we will just follow the crowd." Song Yuhua said with some concern: "But Aung, Taoist Qingyang's martial arts are so high, what if no one can stop him from establishing the Shu League?"

Xie Hui said indifferently: "Then let's join. No matter what time, the survival of Duzun Fort is the top priority. The situation is stronger than people. Who would have thought that Shu would produce such a great man as Qingyang Taoist."

Xie Wenlong said, "Dad, the Qingyang Taoist is so powerful in martial arts, and the Qingcheng Sect is also growing stronger day by day. If our Duzun Fort agrees to join the Shu Alliance, I'm afraid our Duzun Fort will become a vassal of the Shu Alliance in the future."

Upon hearing this, Xie Hui looked up at Xie Wenlong and said, "If you were the lord of Duzun Fort, between becoming a vassal of the Shu Alliance and having Duzun Fort destroyed, which of these two outcomes would you choose?"

Xie Wenlong was speechless for a moment, he understood what his father Xie Hui meant.

"Besides, it's still unclear whether this is a bad thing. Although the Shu martial arts community has always been independent, its strength is far behind that of the Central Plains martial arts community. In addition, there are many forces from all sides, and it is simply a mess. If Taoist Qingyang can subdue the various forces in Shu and establish a Shu Alliance, we may also benefit from it."

Xie Hui continued.

What Qingyang Taoist Chu Yuan is doing now is what he has always wanted to do!

Unfortunately, his martial arts and prestige were far inferior to those of Taoist Qingyang, who had only been in the world for two or three years and had risen as fast as a comet.

Although the outside world calls him the best martial artist in Shu, he is self-aware and knows that he will never be able to unify the Shu martial arts world.

Only outstanding people like his elder brother Song Que and Qingyang Taoist Chu Yuan could unify the martial arts world.

……

Located deep in the mountains.

In a village where ethnic minorities gather.

In a wooden house in the center.

Gathered around the fire pit were three men and one woman, whose clothes were very different from those of the people in the Central Plains.

"Tell me what you think!"

An old man in his early fifties, wearing blue and black striped clothes, a headscarf, with a white beard and rolled up trousers, sat by the fire pit. While adding firewood to the fire pit, he spoke in the unique language of the ethnic minority.

This person is none other than Jiao Luofeng, the “big brother” of the Miao ethnic group.

He is also the oldest among the four leaders of the Ba League.

He is considered the leader among the four chiefs of the Ba League. Usually, when there are major events in Shu or the Ba League that need to be discussed, Jiao Luofeng will take the lead in organizing them.

"What the hell, what are you talking about? The Qingcheng Sect and the Taoist Qingyang have obviously bad intentions. The so-called establishment of the Shu League is just an attempt to annex our Ba League, the Chuan Gang, and the Duzun Fortress."

A short middle-aged man wearing a white suit with black stripes and a colorful animal skin hat was so angry that he cursed.

He is Feng Zhen, the "Monkey King" of the Qiang ethnic group, one of the four leaders of the Ba League.

"What's the point of just scolding him? You know how powerful Taoist Qingyang is. Last time he attacked you, you managed to hold out for a few moves before being defeated. You can tell for yourself!"

A beautiful woman in her twenties, wearing a round-necked short top and a pleated skirt, with a slender waist, big round eyes, a sweet voice, and a charming temperament, hung a pot filled with boiled millet rice on a wooden hook above the fire pit while replying to the Monkey King.

She is the only female among the four leaders of the Bameng, the "beautiful girl" Sina of the Yao ethnic group.

"This... that was because I was not in good shape last time. I was defeated by that Taoist last time. I knew shame and became braver. During this period of time, I have been practicing the White Ape Mother and Child Stick. My martial arts have improved greatly. If we meet again, I will definitely be able to avenge my defeat by that little Taoist last time."

"Monkey King" Feng Zhen touched his head and said with an embarrassed look.

"Forget it, just fool yourself, don't take it seriously. The four of us fought with the Taoist priest for no more than ten moves at most. Only the 'Wind General' among us was stronger, as he lasted eighteen moves under the Taoist priest. The other three of us were defeated in only ten moves. The opponent's strength is no longer on the same level as ours, otherwise Jie Hui would not have been defeated by him..."

However, Sina was merciless and revealed the scars of "Monkey King" Feng Zhen.

"you……"

Monkey King Feng Zhen's face turned a little ugly after hearing what Sina said. He was silent for a moment before saying, "Who would have thought that the little Taoist priest was so evil? His martial arts skills were so high at such a young age!"

"Okay, stop arguing. That Taoist priest is a true genius. We can't compare to him."

At this moment, a voice came from the side.

The man was tall and thin, with tiger tattoos on his chin and back of his neck. He was a middle-aged man with brown skin.

He is the last Yi leader among the four great leaders of the Ba Meng, "Wind General" Chuan Mouxun.

After reading the invitation in his hand, Chuan Mouxun looked up at Jiao Luofeng, the oldest Miao leader who spoke first and said, "Big Boss, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

The Miao leader, "Big Boss" Jiao Luofeng, had been frowning, as if analyzing the matter in his mind. When he heard Chuan Mouxun's question, Jiao Luofeng said, "I think we should go, General Feng, what do you think?"

Feng Jiangchuan Mouxun held the invitation in his hand and said, "I think we should go too."

"What's Meiji's opinion?"

Seeing that Chuan Mouxun had the same idea as him, Jiao Luofeng turned his gaze to Sina again.

"I think we should go, too."

After Sina hung up the cauldrons, she sat on the small stool next to her and said.

"Why did you all agree to go? That little Taoist priest's move clearly had bad intentions."

Feng Zhen said angrily.

"You should know the strength and power of that Taoist priest and the Qingcheng Sect. If we don't go, it would be equivalent to offending that Taoist priest and the Qingcheng Sect. Recently, everyone has been paying attention to the news about that Taoist priest. You have also heard about what he did in the Central Plains martial arts world. Monkey King, do you think that even if the four of us join forces, we can be his opponent?"

Jiao Luo Feng looked at Feng Zhen and said.

Feng Zhen was silent for a while, then he thought of something and said, "Our four tribes live in the mountains. No matter how powerful the little Taoist is, what can he do? If we take our tribesmen and hide in the deep mountains and forests, can he still find us in the mountains?"

Feng Zhen’s words made the other three people laugh!
After laughing, Jiao Luo Feng said, "Monkey King, do you know that more and more people in Shu have converted to Taoism recently? As long as our four tribes live in Shu, I'm afraid we can't avoid the Qingcheng Sect and the Taoists in the future."

Chuan Mouxun said: "So we must go to the Taoist priest's invitation this time. If we can't stop him, we can only join him. It would be best if we can have a certain say."

Sina said with a smile in her eyes: "Besides, the Taoist wants to establish the Ba League, but it may not go smoothly this time. We don't want it, and other forces in Shu and the Central Plains will definitely not want it. No one wants to see the Qingcheng Sect grow stronger and become the overlord of Shu. I'm afraid there will be something interesting to watch when we go to Qingcheng Mountain this time."

The words of Jiao Luofeng, Chuan Muxun and Sina made Feng Zhen suddenly realize: "So that's how it is."

……

Ziyang County.

The headquarters of the Sichuan Gang.

In the spacious hall, there was only one figure standing proudly. He was none other than Fan Zhuo, the leader of the Sichuan Gang.

On the weapon rack behind him was a nearly eight-foot-long fine-steel spear with a shaft as thick as a jujube and a spear tip that gleamed with cold light.

"Shu Alliance!"

"It seems that this Taoist Qingyang is quite ambitious. He wants to take this opportunity to subdue the martial arts forces of Shu and unify the Shu martial arts. Unfortunately, the martial arts forces of Shu and the many martial arts forces in the Central Plains do not want a hegemon who can unify the Shu martial arts to appear in Shu."

"I have to go and see how the Qingcheng Sect and this Taoist Qingyang will end up!"

……

A year flies by in the blink of an eye.

Soon it was the date Chu Yuan had scheduled.

The chiefs and leaders of forces such as Duzunbao, Bameng, and Chuanbang all appeared at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain one after another.

Not only that, there are also some forces under the three major forces in Shu, plus as Chu Yuan's fame is growing, his every move has attracted the attention of the world, and some Central Plains martial arts forces have come from afar...

Troops from all forces have all arrived at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain.
